I also see this message on restart of sh generated 2 GB usb of
Blueberry-v2-.iso on EeePC 900

If I enter nomodeset at <TAB>

nomodeset command results in message:

 "mount: you must specify the file system type can't mount root filesystem"

Boot has failed, sleeping forever
=======================
USB worked on first run

(left out 3 /home commands in sh script)
